Philippians 4:6

~Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer
and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request be made known to God.~

Don't worry....about anything...pray... about everything

I struggle with taking everything to Him in prayer...I quite often just try to handle all those "little things" by myself. Stupid.

The other day as we were going somewhere in the truck I looked back in the back seat to see Princess4 bowing her head in prayer. Her hands were clasped tight, her eyes, she was squeezing closed as tight she could, and her little lips were mouthing a prayer. What she was praying about I don't know. Whatever her little 4 year old mind was thinking about at the time. Possibly what we would have for a snack, or that I wouldn't make her take a nap, or that we would go swimming that afternoon...the possibilities are endless. What I do know is that little prayer was heard by God.

Why can't I be more like that!

Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said,"Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3-5
